the farm residence until May 28th.In view of the restlessness of a considerable number of the rate-payers the present mayor of Rock Islaud thinks it no more than fair that it should be explained that the present council, at least as a whole, cannot be held accountable for alleged diversion to other uses of any funds specifically authorized for the bullding of a town hall, inasmuch as the council of today is a practically new one which has)! used none of the funds in question.The mayor states that at the begin- ping of 1916 when most of the present board assumed office, the municipality was indebted to Contractors O\u2019Brien & Doheny for special road construe- | tion, $3,000, and to the Quebec Government $468 for the municipality\u2019s portion of the cost of the Government | highway.The first-named item of $3,000 was for special tarvia bound macadam in this municipality.In addition to this the municipality had to meet the call for $2,600 to provide a neglected sinking fund on bonds issued.The mayor claime that in addition to meeting these obligations the municipality bas apent over 32,000 on sidewalks, retired debentures of 81,000 L.R.Brush of Littleton, N.H., was

Little to Do With Genius.Statistica Show That Nature Practically Plays No Favorites in Her Production of the Gifted Ones of the Earth.Astrologers belleve that the planets \u201creigning\u201d at the time of birth govern us throughout life, and that, from & Uterary point of view certain months are more favorable than others in which to be born.Taking the hundred best British writers since the day of Chaucer, no less than forty-eight were born In the four months February, May, August and November.In February were born Charles Dickens, Pepys the diarist, and Thomas Moore, while of more modern date and fame are George Meredith, Israel Zangwill, Anthony Hope, Harrison Alnsworth and Wilkie Collins.Pope and Addison were both born in May, us also were Browning, Ross- ett!, Moore, Bulwer Lytton, Thomas Hood, Jerome K.Jerome, and Sir James M.Barrie.August seems to be the birthmonth of poets, for in that month were born Dryden, Herrlick, Scott, Shelley, Southey and Tennyson, Apparently November is an unlucky month for literary people, for among those who were born In November are Thomas Chatterton, who, In disappointment and poverty, committed suicide at elghteen ; William Cowper, who suffered from melancholia and sulcldal mania, and finally died insane; Oliver Goldsmith, continually In prison for debt; John Bunyan, who spent 12 years in prison, thereby giving us \u201cPII- grim\u2018s Progress ;\u201d Swift, subject to fits of passion and ill-humor, died Insane; Robert Louls Stevenson suffered from almost continual ill-health, and dled at forty-four.So much for the \u201cfavored months.\u201d OL the others, Junuary saw the birth of Bobble Burns, Byron and Lewis Carrol, author of \u201cAlice In Wonderland,\u201d who was also a famous mathe- maticlnn.March was the birthmonth of Smollett and Steele, as also of Lillzabeth Barrett Browning.In April was born the greatest genius the English Innguage has known, Willitin Shukespeure, while among others born in this mouth were Wordsworth, Keble, Heber, Swinburne and Herbert.Charlotte Bronte and - Anthony Trollope were also born in this month.June 1s not a very good month, Charles Reade and Charles Kingsley being the only two writers.July gave us Thackeray and George Bernard Shaw, and those interested in astrology may find a resemblance between the two satirists.September and October were both poor months, Mrs.Hemans and H.G.Wells being born In September and Coleridge, Keats and Sheridan tn October.Finally Mliton, Gray and Matthew Arnold were born in December.as were also Jane Austin and Curlyle.So there 1s hope for most people as far as birthimonths nre concerned.Reproducing the Talmud.One of the circumstances due to the war is that it has been found necessary to reproduce the plates for printing the Hebrew Talmud, orig- tnally produced in the town of Wil- na, Russia, When this city was captured by Germany the electrotypes of the Talmud, it is reported, were used for ammunition.To reset the work in Hebrew would take years with an ordinary outfit.It wns found necessary that the plates should be made by photo-engrav- ing, and this work is now belng done tn Montreal under the auspices of the Union of Orthodox Rabbi of the United States and Canada, The Talmud contains 0,000 pages, 8 by 14, and it is divided into 18 volumes, The first volume is finished, and the second 1s fn print now.It is estimated that it will take about two years before the work ts completed.Army Animals Bought Abroad.Not all of the animals used by the United States expeditionary forces In oversens service were taken from this country.More than twice as many were hought abroad.The total num- her of anituals purchased overseas to January 11, 1919, is 132.336, Pur- chnses of horses In France amounted to 109818; In Spain, 1,531; and in Great Britain, 11,808, The value of purchases In France was $43,122004; in Spain, $80,160; nud Great Britain, $5,314,711, or a total value of $40.025,065 for 123,277 horses purchased overseas, The total number of mules purchased overseas amounted te 29.059, with a value of $11,115,847.There were 9.341 mules, valued at $2,805,028, purchased In France: 12041 myles, with à value of £56101068, purchused fn Spain: and 6777 mules, valued at $2,600 763, purchased in Great Britain, Speclal Naval Uniforms.Uniforms having distinetive Insign'a have heen

Agriculture.) Young chicks may be fed any time after they are thirty-six to forty-elght hours old whether they are with a hen or In a brooder.Some good feeds for the first feeding are moistened hard- boiled eggs, johnnycake, stale bread, oatmeal or rolled oats, which may be fed separately or in combination.Mashes mixed with milk are of considerable value In giving the chicks a good start.The mixture should be fed in a crumbly mash and not in a sloppy condition.Jobnnycake composed of the following ingredients in the proportion named ls a very good feed for young chicks: One dozen infertile eggs or one pound of sifted beef scraps to ten pounds of cornmeal ; add enough milk to make a pasty mash and one tablespoonfal of baking soda and bake until done.Dry bread crumbs may be mixed with hard-boiled eggs, making about one-fourth of the mixture eggs, or rolled oats may be used in place of bread crumbs.It is a good plan to give these feeds about five times daily for the first week, then gradually substitute for one or two of these feeds a mixture of finely cracked grains of equal parts by weight of cracked wheat and finely cracked corn and pinhead oatmenl or hulled oats, to which about 5 per cent of cracked peas or broken rice and 2 per cent of charcoal or millet or rape seed may be added.A commercial chick feed may be substituted if desired.This ration may be fed until the chicks are two weeks old, when they should be placed on graln and a dry or wet mash mixture.Young chickens should be fed from three to five times daily, but if care is given not to overfeed chicks will grow faster when fed five times per day.Young chicks should be fed not more than barely enough to sutisfy their appetites and to keep them ex- Young Chicks Just Out.ercising except at the evening or last meal, when they should be given all they will eat.There Is danger in overfeeding, particularly if the young chicks are confined and do not have access to free range, as too much feed under such conditions is apt to cause leg weakness.GRIT NECESSARY FOR FOWLS Hopper Feeding Saves Labor and Furnishes Desirable Supplementary Feed for Hens.Ground feeds are necessary for most efficlent digestion {n poultry.Hopper feeding saves labor and furnishes the necessary supplementary feed at all times.There 18 no danger of poultry overeating on ground feeds fed dry in a hopper.The University of Missourl college of agriculture is recommend- Ing the hopper as a labor saver in the poultry yard.Limestone grit or oyster shell is also necessary for laying hens.A laylng hen requires large quantities of shell- making material, Nearly all of this must come from the grit and shell she ents, It is poor economy not to keep a liberal supply accessible.One extra egg a year will pay the bill.It returns the money Invested a hundred fold.Chickens raised on range can be produced much more economically than those kept closely confined around the farm buildings.Not only is less feed required, but the danger from disease 18 reduced.The edge of the cornfield makes an Ideal poultry range.Chickens grow best on plowed ground and the corn furnishes shade, which is essential during the summer.Under such conditions, a pound of chicken can be produced from three to four pounds of grain.EC POULTRY NOTES À 3 2S DC % POULTRY NOTES Koccanmeareccenenannncncn Skim milk is good for the chickens.= 8 Pumpkin is

Ahead\u201d the Buffets of Fate Are Things at Which to Laugh,\u2019 The typical prospector for gold, still met with in the far hills and deserts, may well be taken by all men as an example and an Inspiration as far as the blessings of staying hopes are concerned, says the Los Angeles Times.\u201cHope deferred maketh the heart sick,\u201d says the proverb.But it is not a good proverb.No matter how long deferred a hope may be it should never be abandoned.It should never be anything but an Inspiration and an incitement.Take this nomadic tribe of prospectors, for instance.The typical prospector Ils a man who has spent per haps the most of his life pursuing a hope that has never been realized.Yet we never find them discouraged.We never know them to end thelr days in despair.No matter how many their years of failure may be they will tell you that just beyond the next chaln of hills or In the heart of a still unexplored desert the treasures they seek are surely awaiting them.A most sincere and persistent man is the prospector.He believes in his quest and respects it.The little or the much that he wins by spasmodic toll he invests in his dreams.He braves the solitudes and the lonely wastes of the world to reach the goal for which he strives.Hunger, thirst and other hardships and sufferings he endures with a willing heart.And he never despairs.That's the glory of the prospector\u2014he never de- spalrs, The average man, hedged In by the traditions of towns and clties or settled In the humdrum of the country, looks upon the prospector as a queer and somewhat demented Individual, We laugh at this strange fellow who is pictured to us as plodding along in the wildernesses and the sandy deso- lations with his pack and his burro, following the will-o*-the-wisps of fortune.But the prospector is only doing in his way what we are doing in ours.We are following each our own dream as the prospector is following hls.The only difference is that we proceed in safety and without adventure, Otherwise we are the same as the wanderer of the desert and the hills.And also we are soon discouraged and we are easy prey to defeat, while it 1s death alone that can defeat the prospector.It seems to us that of all the misfortunes there are in !lfe\u2014and heaven knows there are many\u2014the misfortune of hopelessness is the worst, \u201cOnly for hope the heart would die,\u201d said a poet.It was A true thing to say.And about this wonderful thing of hope there is another way to look at it and that is that we should always have at least one hope ahead.That is to say, we should always have something that we look forward to.Then, if what we have in hand falls us, the other thing that we look forward to will stay us, Hope is something to be busy with.It is something of which we should accumulate a store.Always have plenty of hopes and have them so that they will reach out and last away Into the years of the future.There 18 really something mysterious about a hope.If you will cherish it faithfully and keep it warm in your heart you will be almost sure to sometime realize it.It is sald that we are what we believe ourselves to be.But perhaps we might better say that we are what our hopes ave, Since then a long-cherished hope is most likely to be realized, surely fit were foollsh of us to harbor hopes that will not bring us comfort and joy.Hope for the best there is\u2014not great riches, not any material possession, but peace for the heart and a serene path for the white years of old age.Cotton Growing in China.Now that China has decided what kind of cotton seed does best in that country, and Is distributing it by the ton to farmers, cotton growing starts on a new geographical development.The time may yet come when the Chinese laundryman, far from home, will croon over his collars that he is \u201cstill longing for the old plantation.\u201d Work done during several years In four experiment stations indicates that out of forty varieties of seed the kind known as \u201cTrice\u201d {8 best suited for Chinese cultivation.It appears that \u201cTrice\u201d yields 141 catties to the moe, which is the Chinese way of saying something more than 141 pounds per one-sixth of an acre, for the catty weighs about one-third more than the English pound.The Chinese pound, for that matter is called \u201ckin,\u201d but for some reason foreigners prefer to call it a \u201ccatty.\u201d 67,948 Animals Sent Overseas.In a statement made by the war department It appears that since the United States entered the war and to ; January 11, 1919, this government | shipped overseas from this country 167,048 animals, which included 5,480 cavalry horses, 33,806 draft horses, 28, 088 draft mules, and 075 pack mules.The total number of animals lost en route overseas so far reported is 600 horses and mules, or less than 1 per cent of the total number of anlinals shipped.RETROSPECT THAT IS VAIN Mournful Man Has Come to Realize That All Things That Are te Be, Will Be.\u201cI sometimes think as I watch the efficient workings of a cream separator,\u201d said the stoop-shouldered man, \u201chow much happier my life might have been could I but have had when I was first married a separator, operated somewhat on the same principle, into which my wife's relatives could have been thrust, the crank turned and by centrifugal or centripetal force\u2014I can never remember which is which\u2014the two kinds divided, like the sheep and the goats of Holy Writ.\u201cOut of one spout would have come the undesirable ones\u2014those who controverted my cherished theories, dls- agreed with me on various subjects, and jeered at my lack of faculty, the while they borrowed money from me and paid not again, and wore, their sex permitting, such of my Sunday garments as fitted them.And from the other spout would have emerged the good ones\u2014those who tried to pay thelr way by being sympathetic and tactful, who were diplomatic enough to agree with me when it did not make any particular difference, and occasionally lent me money and were not forever dogging me to get it back.But, of course, nothing of the kind was then or ever will be invented.Man was made to mourn and his wife's kin were made to see that he does mourn.\u201d \u2014Kansas City Star.SEEKING USES FOR LIGNITES Federal Bureau of Mines Will Make Investigation of What May Be New Fuel Supply.The bureau of mines will make an investigation to determine the commercial and economical value of lignites and the practicability of their utilization in production of fuel oil, gusoline substitutes, ummonia, tar, solid fuel, gas for power and other purposes, under the terms of a senate bill which the house of representatives adopted.An appropriation of $100,- 000 was voted.It was argued that the object of the investigation is to demonstrate the commercial value of lignite, which is one-third of the coal deposits of the nation.A vast volume of the deposits is on government land, and Texas has approximately 28,000,000,000 tons.The official report says there 18 bituminous coal in Texas, but not sufficient to supply the raliroads, and in urging the passage of the blll Representative Wingo of Arkansas told the house that proper development of lignite in Texas with its full uses demonstrated would save an annual fuel bill to the people of that state of $15,000,000.\u2014Houston Post.Found Platinum Beds.Dr.Herschel C.Parker of Columbia university, while on an exploring expedition to Alaska last summer, discovered extensive platinum beds in the Susitana and Yentna valleys in the Cook inlet country.He brought out a large number of ore samples on his return to the States, and is now engaged In exhaustive tests of the metal.He expects to establish a plant for handling the ore when he goes back to Alaska next spring.\u201cThe Alaska platinum ore is low grade,\u201d said Doctor Parker, \u2018but It is there in abundance.It will have to be handled in large quantities and under scientific methods of economy to make it pay.The question of its commercial value Is simply one of engineering.With the end of the war and the con- gequent wide use of platinum for jewelry, I believe the Alaska beds will prove a valuable source of world supply.\u201d Mystery Port.A mystery port on the east coast of England was one of the wonders of the war.Its name is now revealed as Richborough, near Sandwich.Here there is a wide stretch of marshland surrounding the mouth of the River Stour, and upon this has been bullt a town covering considerably over two thousand acres.From this place one and a quarter tons of stores have been sent to the western front alone.This great new port is just outside Sandwich, one of the old Cinque ports famous in the days of Queen Elizabeth, The anclent town, where a few years ago the grass was growing in the streets has taken on a new lease of lite.Sniper Was Busy.Private Lewis made

work in French at Stanstead College.Mr.Du- Bois is a man about thirty-five years old, and a teacher of excellent training, and successful experience.He was educated in Geneva University where he took bis B A, M.A , and B.D.degrees.He hae «lea studied in Germany, and in New College, Edin- bargh.As a pastor Mr.DuBois was stationed in St.Etienne, France, and in Louisiana.In 1910 he came to Canada, and was ordained as a minister of the Presbyterian Church of Canada.For the next four years he had charge of a church and school at St.Etienne, Que., where he proved himself to be an excellent teacher and disciplinarian.i INTERNATIONAL W.C.T.U.Wednesday afternoon, May 7th, the Ioternational W.C.T.U.met in the Congregational Church Vestry for its mouthly meeting, which was in this case the annual meeting.A good number were present, representatives from each of the Three Villages.Mrs.Trueman, president, and Mrs.J.A.Hunt, secretary, were in their accustomed places.Each gave an excellent report of the really good work accomplished since the December meeting.Earlier in the year little was was done owing to the lack of an executive head.At the December meeting called at the College, by the courtesy and zeal of Mrs.Trueman, a new start was made after Mra.True- man acceded to the wishes of the members and once more became president of the Union.Mrs.Hunt\u2019s secretarial report was excellent and well given.The treasurer, Mrs.Helen Fisher, being absent, Mre.Hunt also gave a full floancial report.The Union treasury has had in hand, for routine.and special uses, 211 told for the year $127.79.Over sixty dollars of this amount was raised for the specific uee of the prohibition campaign in Quebec Province.Out of this fund in the treasury, as all members know, dues are paid to State and Provincial Unions as this Union has an International membership.As funds were specially subscribed for a Quebec campaign, 80 now are they solicited for the *\u2018Jubilee Drive\u201d in the

specialist for the Protestant Schools, and vice- principal of the high school of that city.For some time Stanstead College has been looking for a strong, French- speaking teacher who would be able to take charge of the French department and make it one of the important features of the College.In Mc.DuBois the management of the College believe they have fouud the man they want, and are looking forward to increasing success in this work.Mr.and Mra.DuBois and family will occupy the rooms in the College previously occupied by Mr.and Mrs.Dobson.Mr.Dobson was given leave of absence from the College eighteen montha ago to take up Y.M.C A.work in the Canadian Expeditionary Force.At present he is conducting the campaign for the Y.M.C.A.fund in the Province of Quebec.At the completion of

Grace.Mr.McMullan ia a hard- working ani! successful teacher, and both students and teachers are sorry to see him leave S anstead.ROBUSTNESS Nature has not been prodigal with everybody in the matter of robustness.Many, all through life, must stand guard and combat colds, coughs, bronchitis or perhaps more serious pulmonary ailments, For nearly five decades SCOTT'S EMULSION has been helping to turn weakness into strength.For those who are delicate, with tender lungs, weak throats and a proncness to debility and anemia, the definite nourishing and tonic qualities of Scott's are of special value.Scutt & Bowne.Toronto Ont, 18-5 ary and, do regretfully, another was Mrs.Mcintosh gave.a good report for the Flower Mission, which she has looked after for nome years.Mrs.Taylor, vice-president,

meetings.WILLIAM LEE TERRILL Another of Stanstead\u2019s time- honored citizens has passed away, in the person of William Lee Terrill, who died at his late residence on Thursday, the 8th day of May, inetant.The late Mr.Terrill was the oldest and only remaining son of the late Hon.Timothy Lee Terrill, who in his lifetime wae such a conspicuous figure in the annals of the Eastern Townships, who was Provincial Secretary in the old Parliament of Canada, and who with his brother, the Honorable Hazrd Bailey Terrill, represented the county in that parliament with great ability for many years.William Lee Terrill was born at Stanstead, on the fourteeuth day of May, 1852, his mother being Harriet Chamberlain, a daughter of Colunel Wright Chamberlain, one ot the pioneers of Stanstead.The late Mr.Terrill was intensely fond of farming and until his death owned and carried on the farm in the village of Stanstead Plain, formerly owned by his father, aud also a large farm in the Townehip of Barnston, which he had purchased.Devotedly attached to his family and home, the late Mr.Terrill, the latter years of his life, which were marked by illness and suffering, was tenderly cared for by his children, four of whom, Charles William L, George Thomar, Mary Ethel and Gertrude Belle, survive him.The loss of his wife, his eldest daughter Maud, and his second son Timothy Lee, all within the past few years, greatly affected him and speed- i y undermined his health (at no time very robust) and hastened his end at the comparatively early age of sixty- seven venre.À lito-long resident of Stanatead Pisin, of a quiet and retiring disposition and devoted to his home and family, his death removes another of the descendants of the old families, who were prominent in its early and palmy daye.The funeral took place from his lite residence on Saturday afternoon, the 10 ni tustant, and was largely attended.I'he interment was in the family lot in the Crystal Lake Cometery.\u201cWHAT HAPPENED TO JONES\" Best Attraction of the Season at Haskell Opera House, Friday, May 23rd.With Friday of next week, May 28rd, there comes to the Haskell Opera House, what may well be termed the supreme theatrical attraction of the year, in \u201cWhat Happened to Jones,\u201d a acreamingly funny farce-comedy, presented by Mr.Albert Hurley, under the auspices of the Stanstead and Rock Island Branch of the Canadian Red Cross Society, for the benefit of the Khaki League.The producer is well known here for his presentation of \u2018The Sorcerer,\u201d and he bas with bim again, in charge of stage direction, Mrs.William Leigh, who was so instrumental in the really remarkable performance of their last production here.The play which comes to the Opera House on the twenty-third, is one the worth while of which has been proven by many successful presentations.\u201cWhat Happened to Jones\u2019 is a veritable classic along farcical lines.The action is uproarious in the extreme, portraying the adventures of a travel: ing salesman, forced to play the part of a Bishop.The intensely laughable situation can be appreciated by a brief resumé of the play.A conservative professor of anatomy is lured to a prize-fight by his prospective son-in-law.The place is raided by the police, and the two escape, followed by the aforesaid salesman.The latter dons the clothes of the professor's brother, a bishop, to escape the police, and is then forced to keep up the illusion when the family arrives and welcomes him with open arms.The arrival of the real Bishop and his mix-up with a lunatic, escaped from a nearby asylum, add to the comedy, which is carried on through three hugely humorous acts.The cast which will present the comedy here on the 23rd, is one of proven ability.Mr.Albert Hurley, in the role of \u2018\u2018Jones,\u201d is a comedian of finish and talent, and Miss Dorothy Farwell, who plays opposite him, is an apt foil for bis work.| Others in the cast include Mrs.Irwin | Sawdon, Miss Nan Bray, Mise Muriel | Parkes, Miss Marjorie Hume, Miss Honor Gifford, Mr.George Hutchinson, Mr.C.K.McCaleb, Mr.T.G.Hauitain, Mr.James Stewart, Mr.Harvey Burt, and Mr.James Bell.\u201cWhat Happened to Jones\u201d will undoubtedly prove an attraction such as is rarely seen here, and one which will be thoroughly appreciated by local lovers of the theatre.SERVED FOUR YEARS IN WAR Alonzo Scribner Succumbed to Pneumonia in England.Mrs.Adam McIntyre of Tomifobia recently received word of the death of her brother, Alonzo Scribner, overseas.Mr.Scribner enlisted soon after the war started and saw four yeare\u2019 service, He had just returned from France to England, when stricken with double pneumonia, and his death occurred at a military hospital in Blackpool, Saturday, March 220d.Mr.Scribner was a son of the late Alonzo Scribner, senior, and before enlisting was employed by C.B.Libby, and was well known by many in this vicinity.He leaves a mother, Mrs.Scribner, five

service overseas.The circumstances of the late soldier\u2019's death are told in the following letter, dated at Blackpool, Lancashire, March 27th, and addressed to Mrs.McIntyre: \u201cJust a few lines in regard to Mr.A.Scribner; am afraid that the news will not be joyful.Mr.Scribner came to Blackpool two weeks ago from France to be demobilised.He came to our house feeling poorly; we attended him, but he was taken to hospital, where he passed away last Sunday at fifteen minutes to six with double pneumonia.He was buried yesterday at 3 30; had a military funeral.There were four friends and a party of soldiers to attend.He had a very decent burial.If there is anything that I can do for you, would be pleased to do it, a8 we always had Mr.Scribner here with us and he was a very good friend of ours.I believe that he had some money saved up which you will bave to get from the Government.\u201d The letter is signed by Mrs.Blanche McDonald, 11 Havelock St, off Central Drive, Blackpool,

intends making her home for the summer.Mrs.Norton was very ably assisted in receiving by Mrs.J.A.Boulais and Mrs.Wm, Haselton.Several selections were given on the victrola, those by Harry Lauder being especially appreciated by the Scotch ladies present.During the evening Mrs.Matthews, on behalf of the friends, presented Mrs.Leslie with a very beautiful eilk umbrella, a leather club bag, and a handsome purse, and in a very pleasing manner conveyed to the guest of honor the best wishes of all, which follow her to her new home, and thanking Mrs.Leslie for her ever ready assistance at all

shape during the entire winter, largely because of the heavy fall hauling of harvested crops, and the rush of necessary farm work, which takes precedence over any kind of road work.The cold weather strikes them in this condition and makes each rut and bump almost as solid as rock, and in the spring these break down into mud, Traveling over these ruts Is a very racking, uncomfortable, and sometimes painful, operation.The rough jolts require a reduction in speed, cause an added straln on all classes of hauling stees Plan of Plank Road Drag.equipment, and frequently force the automobile owner to abandon the use of his car for the entire spring rather than risk a breakdown.Most of the unpleasantness and difficulty may be remedied in many localities even in the worst weather, for there are times when the worst cutup surface is In fairly good condition for dragging.By taking advantage of the proper moment, the ruts and bumps can be smoothed out and the next freeze will result in a smooth hard- surfaced plke that can be favorably compared to a concrete highway.Owing to the fact that the road surface will be rather wet and sticky when dragged, greater care must be exercised in handling the drag.If the blades of the drag are set vertically, there will be a tendency to scrape up too much earth, or, in the language of the road man, \u201cBall up in front.\u201d Also, if the hitch to the team is set too near the center, the angle of the drag with the road will be too nearly a right angle, or stralght across, to shed or crown the wet earth, Dragging under these conditions should be more an \u201cIroning out the wrinkles\u201d process; hence the blades of the drag should be given a forward or flatter Inclination than when working a dry road.The hitch should be so arranged that the angle of the drag is more nearly parallel to the road than ordinary, thus causing the earth to shed better and prevent trouble.For extremely bad conditions, the use of the road machine ahead of the drag will be found effective.In all cases, the road should be freed of all stumps, snags and bowlders, as these serlously retard good drugging.A little practice will enable the operator to do a falrly creditable job, and after a subsequent freeze the road will present a smoother and much more comfortable surface.Then, when the spring rains come, the road will quickly shed the water that formerly collected in the deep ruts, and be dry and hard long before similar roads not dragged.The present difficulties encountered in getting large amounts of crushed stone for road repairs necessitates the greatest care in maintaining all road gurfaces in the best possible way without the use of additional materials, A Hoe and a Sponge.A thick cultivated soll mulch is one of the best possible ways of saving moisture for growing crops.He that most frequently stirs his soll, especially in times of drought, reaps, other things being equal, more abundant harvest than If tillage were neglected.Character of Community.Roads index the character of any community.They determine its importance.They either Ilmit its advance or ald it, If it Isn't worth a good road, it isn't worth living in and land isn't worth what it gells for.Corn in Laying Ration.Poultrymen who have it will find ft advantageous to use a larger proportion of corn in their poultry rations than has generally been recommended.STOOD FOR HUMAN LIBERTY Jean Jacques Rousseau Had Right Conception of Conditions That Made for Freedom.Prof.Kenneth Colegrove of Syracuse university declares that world democracy is the sole basis of world peace.Writing In the World's Work he says: In the year 1713, when the ambassadors of the European powers were engaged at the congress of Utrecht In bringing to 8 close the War of the Spanish Succession, the Abbe de Saint- Plerre was writing the final pages of his little treatise called the \u201cProject for Perpetual Peace.\u201d He proposed confederation of the kings and princes of Europe, with a congress or diet of ambassadors where all disputes between the different states should be settled by arbitration, and where general rules should be adopted from time to time for the purpose of promoting the peace and welfare of each and every realm.Rousseau criticized the abbe's plan, declaring it contalned one flaw, a flaw which vitiated the otherwise noble plan.He believed that a confederation of Kuropean states could never be formed so long as kings and princes ruled.For the essence of kingship was nothing else than the passion to extend its domln- lon without and Its absolutism within; and no plan of confederation, Rous- geau was convinced, would ever be able to quench the old fires of rivalry and despotism.But even if a general alllance of European monarchs were possible, it was manifestly impossible to guarantee princes against the revolt of their people unless at the same time subjects were given a guaranty against the tyranny of their rulers.In launching thls latter criticism agalnst the abbe\u2019s project the author of the \u201cSo- clal Contract\u201d foresaw the contingency of the Holy Alliance of 1815, when the autocrats of Europe called the Indivisible Trinity to witness that, as brothers of the same family, they would defend the doctrine of the divine right of kings against the contradiction of revolution wherever it should appear.Yet more trenchant was the critl- clsm of Voltalre.\u201cThe peace imagined by the Abbe de Salnt-Plerre,\u201d said the phllosopher of Fernay, \u201cis a chimera which could no more subsist between princes than between elephants and rhinoceroses, or between wolves and dogs.Carnivorous animals rush to attack each other on all occasions.\u201d The \u201cProject for Perpetual Peace,\u201d according to Voltalre, was not absurd in itself, but in the manner of its proposal.There would always be wars of ambition and conquest, untM people learned that it was only a small number of generals and ministers who profited thereby.Name Mountain \u201cRoosevelt.\u201d Impressive ceremionles attended by many soldier and civilian friends of the former president will mark the dedication of Mount Theodore Roosevelt on July 4.Shortly after the death of Colonel Roosevelt the ploneers of the Black Hills met at Deadwood, S.D., and decided to change the name of Sheep mountain, near Deadwood, to Mount Theodore Roosevelt.Feeling that the spirit of Independence day typlfied the ideals of the late president it was decided to postpone the formal ceremony until then.Invitations have been sent to scores of Colonel Roosevelt's friends by Col.Seth Bullock.Maj.Gen.Leonard Wood will deliver the dedicatory address, Gifford Pinchot, Secretary Lane and many other national figures will be present.Woman's Remarkable Feat.The American flag and the British Jack flew side by side from the mast of a British warship for the first time in the history of the post of Bremer- ton, Wash, when Mrs.Bertha Savage, an employe of the Industrial division of the navy yard, on a dare, climbed to the top of the mast on H.M.S.Lancaster as she lay In dock and broke out the two ensigus.Mrs.Savage, better known to the yard employes as \u201cMontana Liz,\u201d has heen at the yard for several months, She comes from the ranges in Montana and Is well known for her cowboy attire and her plcturesque vccab- ulary.Her feat in cliinbing to the top of the 139-foot mast was no mean accomplishment for a woman.The ship's crew watched the stunt with great interest and enthuslastical- ly cheered the climber, Oxen Again Beasts of Burden, The ox as a beast of burden is coming Into its own agaln in the farming communities of the state, according to a dispatch from Lewiston, Me, and the oxsling and apparatus used by blacksmiths in shoeing the animals, long ago thrown Into the discard, is in use again.The sling consists of a rude frame of timber into which the animal is fastened by a plllory.Straps are then drawn under the body, the ends being made fast to upper timbers of the frame.In blacksmith shops 20 years ago the slings were common, Oxen are less expensive to feed than horses and are equally as useful ob small farms, and the rising value of feed ix having much to do with the comeback of the ox as a work animal.Experienced In Munition Making.| Llanclly, Wales, did {ts bit in the matter of munitions long before the great war.At the beginning of the nineteenth century Mr.Raby, the great local Ironworker, cast a large quantity of shot for the government, Earller still, when Cromwell wns besieging Pembroke castle, much of the shot were supplied from the Llanelly district, 1 SILKS OF GORGEOUS COLOR Huguenot Collection Exhibited in Now York Declared to Be a Marvel of Preservation.What is perhaps the most wonder ful exhibition of old French silks in the world is to be seen in the library of the International Buyers\u2019 club at 130 West Forty-second street, New York, says Scientific American.The collection comprises more than 700 specimens of silk manufactured by the descendants of the Huguenots who settled in Spitalfields and Bethnal Green, London, after the revocation of the edict of Nantes in 1685.It has lately come Into possession of the International Buyers\u2019 club and is sald to be the most valuable of its kind In the world.The fabrics of the collection are as durable and the colors as brilliant as If ther were turned from the looms yes terday.The disintegration of the silk fabric that one sometimes sees in Chinese mandarin coats has not taken place.Indeeed, the old French silk workers did not develop thelr art from the anclent Chinese, who Jealousiy guarded the secrets of their craft.The silk Industry was originated in the western world by two Persian monks who had resided in China and who In about 550 brought to Constantinople the eggs of the silk worm In a hollow bamboo tube.From these contents developed the silk industry of Europe.There 1s an elusive dellcacy about the French silks that quite defles description.Many of the French patterns are quite up to date and are said to be in line for any revival of styles.This is particularly true of the tiny patterns in checks, blug, red, green and brown In flelds of white silk, all of which are adapted to cravats.The gorgeous colors are shown in the silks of upholsteries; the most delicate and evanescent In those evidently intended for women's apparel or draperies.Wonderful dyes the French weavers used, vegetable dyes that increase In their beauty as the years go by.Gold, pure yellow, brilliant gold, 1s shown; white, Ivory, flesh, coral, turquoise, apricot, ocean green, ashes of rose, chartreuse, honey, maple, geranium, scarlet, cardinal, garnet and a thousand other tints that would be hard to match today even when we have 323 shades of navy blue alone.The strength and durability of the silks in this collection, some of which are hundreds of years old, suggest that with reasonable care they are proof agalnst disintegration of the ages.There 18 not a cracked, worn or thin sample among them.The brilliance of their dyes, some of whose formulas are at present lost to the world, is evidence that the world may never be forced to be completely dependent upon any one natlon for its dyes and that the forgotten lore In the art of dyeing fabrics reveals the varied future that may be revived under the spur of necessity.One of the Last of Old-time \u201cReds.\u201d Tom-o-Wah-Teet, who remembered the first coming of the white man to the Klickitat valley, Washington state, has gone to the happy hunting grounds at the age of at least one hundred and ten.He was known and liked by everyone In the region, and would tell vividly of the events of days when white people invaded the territory of the Yakimas and Klicki- tats.He was present at the council of Walla Walla plains in 1855, and was a warrior under Kamiakin fn the Yakima Indian war that followed.He took part in the block house battle and massacre of white settlers at the Cascades, where Lieut.Philip H.Sheridan was in command of the troops sent from Fort Vancouver to defend the garrison.After the revolt was crushed Tom-o-Wah-Teet was always friendly to the whites, and his many services have been repaid, for since he became nearly blind about five years ago and could no longer support himself and his aged squaw by work- Ing on farms, those he once aided have louked after his wants.Fewer Accidents Now, and Why.War conditions, by bringing large numbers of new and unskilled workers into industry, had in general the effect of increasing considerably the number of industrial accidents, both actually and relatively to the number of persons engaged in certain industries.Information recently received by the inspection and investigation service, department of labor, indicates, however, than in general tho number of such accidents has now returned to approximately normal figures.In a comparatively short time before the entrance of America Into the war, the effect of workmen's compensation laws and safety work had reduced the number of industrial accidents almost 50 per cent.The temporary increase due to the influx of war workers has now vanished.\u2014Sclentific American.Lost Diamond Mine?A fabulous fortune awaits the man who discovers the lost diamond mine of Arkansas.There are indisputable Indications that such a mine exists, according to a statement by Capt.Frederick C.Packer, an English diamond mining expert who has twice come to this country from Kimberly, South Africa, In search of the lost mine.Due to the pecullarity of the natural process by which diamonds were formed fn the dlm ages of the past, Captaln Packer sald, the Indications of a diamond field may be found a long distance from the fleld.These Indications have been found in a certain section of Arkansas, but the mine has not been discovered.It may be near the Oklahoma line, he assert-.HUN HATE PLAINLY SHOWN Press Utterances During the Spanish War Were Worthy of the Cerman at His Best, How the Germans regarded us In the period of the war with Spain 1s set forth by Andrew D., White, ex-ambas- sador to Germany, in his autobiography published by the Century company.\u201cOn my settling down to the busl- ness of the embassy (1897-1903),\u201d he writes, \u201cit appeared that the changes in publie sentiment since my former stay as minister, 18 years before, were grent indeed.At that time German feeling was decidediy friendly to the United States.But all this was now changed.During the Spanish war it was especially virulent, thelr newspapers being full of statements and arguments to show that corruption was the main characteristic of our government, cowardice of our army and navy, and hypocrisy of our people.Various newspapers in Germany charged our government with a wonderful assortment of high crimes and misdemeanors; but, happily, in thelr eagerness to cover us with obloquy, they frequently refuted each other.\u201cThus they one day charged us with having prepared long beforehand to crush Spaln and to rob her of her West Indian possessions, and the next day they charged us with plunging into war suddenly, recklessly, utterly careless of consequences, One moment they insisted that American sailors belonged to a deteriorated race of mongrels and could never stand against pure-blooded Spanish sailors; and the next moment, that we were crushing the noble navy of Spain by brute force.Various presses indulged in malignant prophecies; the Americans would find Spain a very hard nut to crack; Spanish soldiers would drive the American mongrels Into the sen; when Cervera got out his fleet the American fleet would slink away; American ships, bullt under a regime of corruption, would be found fur- pished with sham plating, sham guns and sham supplies of every sort.Against President McKinley every sort of iniquity was charged.One day he was an idiot; another day the most cunning of intriguers; at one moment an overbearing tyrant anxious to rush Into war; at another a coward fearing war\u201d Pencilmaking in Madras.The government of Madras has de- eided that the experiments which have been made hy the department of industries for the lust three years in the manufacture of pencils have reached a stage at which the Industry should be made over to a private enterprise, says an exchange.Arrangements for the sale of the pencils produced by the factory were completed in August, 1917, and the profit and loss statement prepared by the auditors for the period from September 1, 1917, to March 3, 1918, shows that in these seven months the factory made a profit of $1,904 which represents a rettrn of a little over 20 per cent on an assumed capital of $16,220.During the same period the factory produced 7,599 gross of pencils and sold 8,260 gross.The factory has deliberately been run on as small a scale as was consistent with the purpose in vlew\u2014namely, the demonstration on commercial lines of the prospect of the Industry.The factory produces black lead pencils lacquered in various colors, copying pencils, carpenters\u2019 pencils and diary pencils.Experiments with red and blue pencils are under way.Must Always Have Horses.A limousine is all very well for 8 fleeing kaiser.But for a triumphal entry, a journey over strewn roses, through acclalming throngs, the monarch selects a horse.King Albert and his queen returned to thelr people in the ancient knightly manner.Many state@uen are less becoming to a horse, and it is perhaps fortunate that the president's limousine escaped damage on the Orduna, but it is certain that a highbred steed rises to an occasion of magnificence better than a motorcar.\u201cA drift of crimson petals covered the mudguards, lilies became tangled in the nonskid chains, and the exultant crack of a blowout mingled with the people's cheers.\u201d This will never do.Come what may, we must always keep a few horses to head parades, Collecting War Library, The university at Bologna, Italy, has well under way a war library for the collection of

India, where German propaganda was rife during the period.The University of Bolgona is attempting to make such a collection of books and documents as will furnish an historiun material for an fm-

in New York Town Should Furnish an Inspiration.On October 1, 1915, all the boy scouts of Mount Vernon, N.Y., as sembled ar the Presbyterian church and heard a detailed account of the life history of the Tussock moth, one of our worst shade tree leaf feeders.This Insect overwinters in the egg stage and from fall till spring the eggs may be found in small white clusters firmly attached to the bark of trees and protected places along fence rails and under the house moldings.Each troop was assigned a deflnite section of the city and each section was further subdivided for the Individual scouts, so that the entire city might be covered.For nearly three weeks the boys scouted around gathering the egg masses and then the territory of each troop was shifted so that the work might be checked up, triple credit being given for eggs collected during this checking period.Upwards of a quarter of a milllon eggs were collected by the scouts during the contest, and it would be difficult to state In

in addition perhaps to the cost of another 1lght bulb, while injury to this lamp usually involves but one or possibly two of the eight panels, which can be replaced for about 5O cents each.The top, which slopes slightly toward - the sides from the center, serves to reflect the light downward, while many globes tend to throw more light upward thun down.,\u2014 Popular Mechanics Magazine.Selecting Site for Home.As the prospective home builder usually has a general idea of the type of house to be erected, this preference will have a bearing upon the site to be selected for it.For example, a lot totally unsuited for a formal structure might be an ideal setting for a bungalow.Yet in a neighborhood of old- fashioned homes the bungalow might appear so Incongruous as to depreciate by contrast both its own value and that of its neighbors.In any event, the land and the building should produce a harmonious effect.Moreover, if a lot Is of unusual shape or 1s not level, a home may be so designed that these defects are converted into advantages.The sources of light, shade and nearness of surrounding buildings also have a bearing on bulld- ing plans.Untidy Streets, The New York Merchants\u2019 assocla- tion has an antilitter bureau, that is now engaged in a campaign against dirty streets.The cost of cleaning up the refuse that should have been dropped into the very convenient con- talners, but is just dropped in the street Instead, is enormous.School children are reported as serious offenders, for they bring paper from the schooltoom and tear and scatter it upon the streets.That isn\u2019t patriotic \u2014not a bit.A Tree for a Tree.The wood supply of the United States is becoming low.Trees are being cut down ruthlessly and a large part of them are allowed to lie on the ground and rot.People who do such things should be dealt with severely by the government.The United States should establish a Rystem such as that in Norway and Sweden, where for every tree cut down another one must be planted.\u2014 Exchange.Value of Decency.Cleanliness in body and camp, in kitchen and hospital, made all the difference to vur soldlers and sallors between sickhess and health, even between life and death.Will they as cltizens be as tolerant toward dirty streets and alleys, dirtier vices and habits and still deadlier disorderly resorts and crimebreeding, discase- spreading districts?What Noah Was Doing.\u201cWhat was Nonh supposed to be doing while the animals were passing into the ark?\" asked the Sunday schoolteacher.\u201cTakin' tickets,\u201d promptly

first thought one would be apt to claim for London, the great metropolis, the honor of having given birth to the greatest number of the world's geniuses, Among other great Londoners the following might be cited: Francis Bacon, philosopher and essayist; Spenser, Jonson, Milton and Keats, world- known and honored poets; Hogarth, Turner, Watts, Millais and Holman Hunt, artists whose achievements are acclaimed by all the world of taste; Fox, Pitt and Beaconsfield, statesmen who have influenced the building of empire; Daniel Defoe, the novelist; Faraday and Huxley, the sclentists, and many others.All these would stand in the very front ranks of greatness, some of them, like Milton and Bacon, towering above thelr fellow men like mountain peaks among molehills.The Frenchman would undoubtedly stand up for the claims of Paris, quoting a long list of poets and painters and novelists and statesmen to justify his boast.The Itallan would probably put the question: \u201cHow far back may we go in this quest?For if ancient Roe is to be added to the record of the more modern city, where will you find her equal?\u201d Then Athens would lift up her classic voice in protest, and quote a long list of her sons who have formed the models of all subsequent time in art and poetry and phllosophy and architecture.But there Is another competitor which can beat them all in this combat.Compared with London or Paris, or even Rome, it 18 a small place.The city is Firenze\u2014Florence\u2014the native city of Savonarola, of Fra Angelico, of Donatello, of Botticelli, of Leonardo da Vinci, of the mighty Michael Angelo, the glory of his age and of all succeeding ages; Florence, the city of Boccaccio, the father of novelists; of Machiavelll, whose very name is a proverb, and of the famous Me- diel; yes, and lastly, Florence the city of Dante, the first both in time and position of this glorious galaxy of stars of the first magnitude.How such a small place cver gave birth to so many mighty sons of genlus is one of the standing puzzles of heredity and environment and edu- catlon.Why does not Glasgow breed geniuses?Nobody knows.During a period of two hundred years Florence was a forcing bed for supreme achleve- ment.During that time the little city broke all records, ancient and modern, and it is hard to ses where her competitor is to spring from who shall take away her crown of laurels.Some War Economies, There is probably nothing that seems so useless in the eyes of the average person &s an Irish potato which has begun to rot, but the department of agriculture in its war-time experiments has discovered that starch can be made from a decayed potato Just as well, If not better, than from a good one, and so the surplus stock of the farmer or dealer need no longer be thrown away or wasted.In llke fashion chemists seeking methods to avoid world-wide food shortages have found thut suger cannot only be made from beets, but from sweet potatoes as well.The farmer himself can make good sirup from his sweet potatoes by boiling them until they can be mashed in the water to thick, mushy liquid.To this ground malt is added and the result, after properly cooking for about an hour, is a thick sirup, which is strained through a cloth and used for any sort of sweetening.Modest Hero.My heroic actlon was this: We were lying close up to thelr defenses, and for four days had not been able to climb out; we lay like reptiles.There was not a dry spot; one could not get accustomed to it.And H\u2014, the ensign, had been caught on the wire when we had started to attack.At first he asked for help, called on the men by name; but one could not show one's nose without being shot.Then he only groaned and breathed heavily.That went on for four days, and he still lived.It Is a sin to grumble at God, but here one says: \u201cWhy be careful of one's soul?\u2019 1 couldn't endure it and took him off the wire; but I got wounded.Then these was an attack, and our men captured the post.\u2014Lon.don Times.Fire-Retarding Paints.From tests made at the federal bu reau of standards it appears that, while practically all paint coatings have some fire-retarding action, none of those so far tested afford very great protection, All the samples In question were materially damaged by application of flame for a few seconds.Both sodium silicate and whitewash rank comparatively high.These have the advantage of cheapness and can both be used on the same surface.However, according to a recent bulletin of the bureau, no treatment of wood after erec- ; tion can be expected to serve ns an effective fire protection, and the use of such materials should not be made an excuse for omitting any of the usual precautions against fire.DESPISE THE \u201cHIGHER LIFE\u201d South Sea Natives Satisfied and Joyous Among the Primitive Surround- Ings of Their Islands.Doctor Osler suggested nothing new \u2014if he ever sald it at all\u2014for down gmong the South Sea islands the old are burled alive when they pass the period of usefulness.Martin Johnson showed motion ples tures of natives dancing on the newly made graves of the victims of this South Pacific \u201cefficlency\u201d when he and Mrs.Johnson spoke before the National Geographle soclety at Washington.Both Mr.and Mrs.Johnson went \u201cgunning\u201d for the pictures among the numerous unexplored islands which dot the South Pacific, an area that covers a tenth of the globe\u2019s surface, and contains 20,000,000 inhabitants.Of these at least 2,000,000, Mr.Johnson estimated, still are savage enough \u201cto belleve the earth is flat, and they never heard of German \u2018kultur\u2019 or have been annoyed by book agents.\u201d Native dances, which seemed amazingly llke the steps of a Broadway chorus, were danced by maldens attired in nose sticks, huge earrings and necklaces, which seemed to comprise the complete attire dictated by the spring fashlons of the Solomon !s- lands.The \u201copen work ears,\u201d which bad been distended by disks that look like ear drums, often hung down to the shoulders.In Malaita they are wearing strings of human teeth, and nothing else, this season.Mrs.Johnson told of the distinctive variety of \u201cpidgin\u201d English spoken by the shore natives of various Islands.There are as many as 400 different tongues spoken by the various 1slanders, Mr.Johnson stated.Mrs.Johnson usually made friends with the natives, among whom, she naively stated, there probably was little more danger than among the white lights of Broadway.But this popularity occasionally had its disadvantages.The pictures showed the four coal- black wives of one native chief, who courteously offered to trade them all for the explorer's wife.Cannibalism still exists in many of these islands, and Mr.Johnson showed one picture of natives bearing a huge bowl to the grove where they observed their ceremonials in connection with their human roasts.Amid a background of some of the most beautiful scenery to be found in the world, the speaker said, exist peoples of almost animal-like savagery and ferocity, to whom torture and murder seem the favorite pastimes.Ants on Peonies.For a number of years many persons in various parts of the country have complained of ants destroying the buds on the peonies.To rid peonles of these ants, cut a circular piece of heavy paper or heavy cardboard, about two feet in diameter, and put a hole in the center just large enough to allow the stem or maln stalks of the peony to pass through, and then slit from the center to one edge, tv enable you to place the cireu- lar rim of paper round the plant.Smear molasses on the surface of the cardboard, and then scatter a little arsenic powder over the sticky molasses, The ants will eat of the sweet as they go or come, and it will not be long until you have stopped the constant stream of destructive ants from visiting the peony buds.In some localities similar trouble has been experlenced with ants on dahllas, and the same remedy may be successfully used.If a very thick solution of arsenate of lead is used with plently of molasses, it will do the same work as the arsenic.Crossed Arctic to Help Red Cross.Many strange things happen in the course of Red Cross activities, and not a few occur in that most versatile territory, Alaska.The office of the Northwest division of the Red Cross was mildly surprised recently when Mrs.Sophia Redmond of Nolan, Alaska, walked fn and turned over $200 as the proceeds from the auctioning of a sweater she had knit for the Red Cross, This statement itself 1s only of pass- Ing interest perhaps, but take your map of Alaska and you wlll locate Nolan well within the arctic circle, between the sixty-seventh and sixty- eighth parallels.Mrs.Redmond, who is the only white woman at Nolan, left there August 10, mushing to Bettles, 70 miles away.From there she went to Nulato by river boat, a journey of almost 500 miles.There she boarded a Yukon river steamer to connect with the ocean steamship for Seattle, Cuba's Neglected Resources.Though an agricultural stnte, there are important branches of agriculture that are all but wanting in Cuba.Thus cereals are not raised on a large scale, the hay crop Is unimportant and large quantities of flour, potatoes, meats, heans, canned goods, apples and other agricultural products are fim- ported.Though many cattle are raised on the island, the dairy Industry is as yet undeveloped, and much milk, butter and cheese nre brought from the United States and other countries.The rural population largely engaged on the great sugar plantations is essentially different from an agricultural state of the United States.Right on the Job.\u201cUncle Sam is no bully, but
